  • The Red Sox Top Prospect Right Now?
    Apr 28 2025
    Roman Anthony or Marcelo Mayer? That’s where the conversation begins in this week’s episode, as Alex Speier and J.P. Ricciardi dive into what makes each Red Sox prospect stand out, how close they are to reaching the big leagues, and what areas they still need to develop. Ricciardi offers his MLB comparison for Anthony, breaks down Mayer’s injury concerns, and discusses how both players could fit into the Red Sox roster. They also explore whether Boston may need to trade an outfielder to clear a path for Anthony. The episode continues with a look at Ricciardi’s recent induction into the WooSox Hall of Fame and his reflections on passing down his passion for the game to his sons, including Dante, who now works as a scout for the Red Sox. That leads to a breakdown of left-hander Shane Drohan, scouted by Dante, and a discussion on whether his swing-and-miss success can carry over to the majors. They also examine how the ABS system might be impacting walk rates at the Triple-A level. Ricciardi shares what led him to move from the front office to the broadcast booth and how broadcasting WooSox games has become a valuable resource for scouts and executives alike. The episode wraps with a look at the Red Sox’s progress compared to other rebuilding teams, the Blue Jays’ evolving financial strategy, and whether Toronto can finally match its talent level with consistent winning. All that and more on 310 To Left, hosted by Alex Speier and J.P. Ricciardi, presented by Your New England Ford Dealers.
